Giant junk necklace in Austin - Trash Talk #11

Last week in Austin, Texas, we created a giant necklace with the help of local jewelers (@clairesommersbuck and @andlandrymcmeans) and many other locals who brought their beautiful junk: stones, copper, fossils, and crystals.
We completed Malin's Fountain-my first troll sculpture in Austin, Texas. This sculpture collects water for the birds and squirrels of Pease Park during hot days.
Lastly, I was fortunate to have the Minor Mishap Marching Band perform at the sculpture's opening. Their song "Track Suit" is, to me, the ultimate troll song.
A big thanks to my crew and everyone who made this project possible!

We'll be in Texas for the eclipse and can't wait to see the new troll! Have been fortunate enough to see the trolls at Bernheim Forest in Kentucky, as well as Benny the Beardfisher in Germfask while it was under construction.

What a fortuitous combination of timing, connection with the lovely jeweler, and the magnificent mishap marching band. Your poem and awareness of the water and animals is perfect.

So cool, Thomas! ❤

I can't wait to start seeing the Trolls on our summer travels this year. I will try to add Austin to our extensive travel list. I have become obsessed...

What an absolutely fantastic new troll! Congratulations Austin on your new addition and greetings from Denmark 😊
